/// Labour look likely to win next time anyway. ///
Crikey I do hope not, surely the British electorate are not crazy enough or forgetful enough to forget those 13 unforgettable and horrific years that they were last in power?
Lets hope that there are enough voters who are not unnecessarily living off State benefits, are not immigrants, and are prepared to turn out and vote.

Interesting point made on the Today program this morning.
Cameron needs the Lib Dems to pick up in the opinion polls.
UKIP is hurting the Tories much more than Labour, and the Lib Dems are a centre-left party, a lot of their disenchanted voters will have gone to Labour.
DC desperately needs Clegg to win back those voters or he's going to get distroyed at the next election.

The problem that Mr Cameron has introduced for the Tories is this:
People who "always vote Labour" (such as most of those in South Wales, Southern Scotland,the big conurbations in Northern England, and Inner London) will never vote Tory. He has no possibility of gaining voters from theose areas no matter what Labour has done in the past or promises to do in the future. Because of the Coalition's abysmal record over the past two years Tory voters are now looking elsewhere and many are turning to UKIP. All this does is strengthens Labour's position.
The Coalition has been a disaster for the UK and for Tory voters in particular. Their interests are nor being addressed. On the contrary, despite Labour's rhetoric about "millionaires" being pampered by the Tories, even if this is true, millionaires make up a very small proportion of Tory voters. The vast majority are "comfortable" and the Tories squirm at the thought of that comfort.
My own view is that the sooner the Coalition is ended the better it will be for the entire UK. But of course because of the outrageous "fixed term Parliament Bill" introduced soon after the 2010 election, this is unlikely to happen.

It seems obvious based on current trends Labour will have a majority of voting intentions. With a small majority its almost a certainty the Liberals will find their true home and cosy up to Labour. Because their policies are similar they will wield a bigger influence and all their crazy policies will come to the fore.
So Vote Labour and you will get Liberal.

The Conservative and the Lib Dems will fight the election separately so the coalition needs to end probably a year before the election. Then they can each present different sets of lies and promises to be broken, before the electorate.
It is likely both parties will do badly and we will not be in the unfortunate position of needing an unholy coalition. UKiP will do great damage on the Conservatives. The Lib Dems are a left of centre party who no one on the left trusts anymore. They will be left with a handful of MPs and Labour will collect most of their votes.
Both the LibDems and the Conservatives need to ditch their leaders before the election to have any hope. But I suspect the Conservatives know they are unlikely to win whatever they do and it will be easier to dump Cameron after losing an election.
It is very early to say so, but Labour could have a very big majority next time.

The problem with opinion polls is that they are often a tool to beat the current incumbent.
The liberals are probably finished, the Tories may get back votes from UKIP when it actually comes to putting pen to paper especially if people are frightened by the prospect of Labour, and remember this is a real, union backed labour so brace your self for years of strikes and a massive public debt.
The prospect of millipede and Balls may well cause either voter apathy or as I say a Tory vote (through gritted teeth) to keep them out. If it was millipedes brother I think it would be a landslide to labour, but it isn't.
